Here we have for sale my Volvo 850 T5r Estate. It is the rarer manual verson.
First lets start with the bad news.
It does not run. this is how i purchased it
My investigations into the car lead me to believe that the Cams are incorrectly fitted. I was just going to pull the engine and drop in another one, to save messing around.
I have got any further that this and i now realise that i will not ever get round to fixing it.
The turbo, exhaust and manifold are all in the boot, as is the airbox and the foglights
It only has one key.
There is some rust begining to show on the underside of the bonnet and arround the rear numberplate.
The Titan alloys and the front spoiler are missing, although i have a front spoiler in the correct colour avalible by seperate negotiation(NOT INCLUDED)
It is sitting on standard T5 Alloys
The tailgate trim is off, as the previous owner rebuilt the rear wash wipe.
No battery
Very little paperwork with it.
The good news
This is a rarer T5r in the right colour that with a weekend or twos work will be worth a considerable amount more that i want for it!
Good T5r interior
Please feel free to contact me for more info or to arrange a viewing, which is recommended.
Cash on collection, No Paypal
So ultimately its a car that with a little investment should be really nice, just i dont have the time to do it and i need my drive back!
Delivery can be arranged. Call me for a quote
Looking for £450ono

Looks like it may be a bargain for someone (I'd have had it if I had the cash), post some more pics up (interior etc), it may help your sale.

so what happened to stop it from running? Was the top end dismantled at some stage?

If i knew how to add photos i would?!
Top end was dismantled by the previous owner, and the exhaust was removed. I could not find out why? My best guess is that it had aftermarket cams and exhaust and they were removed for another car. The previous owner did say it had been running at 310bhp?
It is basically as i bought it, and as im now unemployed i need to realise a bit of cash.
My loss is someone elses gain!

The interior is £450 and you get the rest of the car free?! Seriously i would rather the whole car went than i break it as i still have many parts, inc. most of the interior trim, from the left from the last breaker.

Could make a very nice car for someone to have as a project. (I don't have the room or the funds)
